Oval in shape, with a pronouced bulge on one end, lemons are one of the most versatile fruits…

Method

Heat oil in a non-stick pan and cook the salmon, skin-side down, for 5 mins. Turn over and continue to cook for 4 mins more until the salmon is cooked through. Remove from pan, leave to cool, then flake the fish into large chunks, discarding skin.

Cook tagliatelle according to pack instructions. Scoop out half a cup of cooking water, then drain and return to the pan. Toss in the salmon and remaining ingredients, loosening with cooking water, if the mixture is too thick. Serve immediately.

Perfect and so simple. A good squeeze of lemon juice and zest makes this recipe. Optional a sprinkle of chilli for my husband.

Super quick and tasty. I used hot smoked salmon with chilli and added plenty of black pepper.

I too found this incredibly bland, even with the addition of garlic, chilli and lemon juice :(

Added the chilli and garlic as suggested and worked a treat !! Seared the salmon fillets on a skillet so the flavour worked well with the rocket - added at the end. Another family favourite !!
For pud I made the Strawberry and Cinamon Torte - also from the GF site - 10/10 great flavour combo......

After making this once I then switched to using smoked salmon which I think tastes much better and makes this recipe even easier!

I just added in some Smoked Cod instead of salmon. But smoked salmon aswell would make a nice suggestion. Then i added a bit of feta and some oven cooked tomatoes with thyme. YUM!!!

great recipe, it works, it is easy... I used normal salmon and will do it again. It is important to to stir in rocket at the end, so it doesn't wilt.
